hi im a newplayer in ps but not to guilds, i have been in many guilds for many different MMORPGs such as ,eq1,eq2,WoW,Runscape.,rubies of eventide, guild wars, i have a lot of community and leadership experience and im looking to join a guild as arecruit to work my way up.

I think it would be better if you chose from a list of guilds, instead of posting a thread and being recruited by a random guild.
You should check Kada\'s list (http://tavern.blueglyph.net/modules.php?name=Guilds) and then use your favorite guild\'s forum to request your membership.
Good luck.

Kada El\'s is not a list of all the guilds in game. A guild has to exist for 3 months before applying to be in the list.
I agree it is a good place to start but you should also check this forum for posts from other guilds and ask around in game. :)

Dark Empire: Lawful Evil
Basically, join them if you want to have a foot in organized crime.... if you think there is honour in evil. Theives and murderers are not welcomed, but assassins are considered to be in high regard. They aren\'t well regarded by other \"good\" guilds, but they are the most powerful evil guild which isn\'t underground, and they have connections to underground guilds.
The Dragon Council
A bunch of powerlevellers which help noobies, say they\'re neutral, and don\'t pay attention when they\'re own members cheat.
Guild Knights
A mass recruiting \"neutral\" guild which in fact only lets in \"good\" members.
Feline\'s Lair
Are you a cat? No? Then get lost.
Knowledge Seekers
They seek knowledge. Or something.
Explorers
They\'re typical nice enough in game and have a very in depth understanding of the map and secrets of planeshift. They\'re very helpful and very knowledgeable. Joining the guild is based on merit, but membership grants access to very accurate maps. They won\'t invite you if they think you just want to join for the maps.
Guild Warriors
Anthony of Guild Knights guild. They broke away from the guild knights thinking that the knights had become sterile and without direction. They claim to be good, but they have connections to evil underground characters and rumours fly of theivery and murder.
Twin Blades of Arete
Worshipping perfection, members aim at being the most deadly fighters in the land. Though evil, they value loyalty and obedience amoung their members. Their leaders were inspired by Deus ex Trucido, and they consider themselves to be carrying with them a certain legacy. Of course, Deus ex Trucido sees them in a slightly different light.
Secret Guilds
There are more secret guilds than I can count, because there are more secret guilds than I know of. \"Rilar\" knows much, as do other individuals. If you are lucky, you might even be targeted by one of them.
-
so everyone guild you don\' like your giving a bad name, and every guild yuo liked or had friends with your giving a good name,It can depend what race he is as well
-
i think shals list sums things quite well even if he is a little foward with his words. bascially the guild to join depends on the player...
-
Kada\'s List of Guilds requires a three month waiting period for a very good reason. Because many guilds that are simply created in-game die out.
Kada\'s List represents the oldest guilds, the biggest guilds, and the best guilds. The guilds that are on that list have been around long enough to know PS and to know the people of PS and that fact makes it a very good place to start if you are new to PS.

I do not want to stir or upset but here goes.
Guilds of the realm.
Blitzers: seen one or two members.
Ordo illuminatis: never seen one.
Calen Vakhar: never seen one.
Zelphirien: never seen one.
New Guilds to Realm.
Ovates: never seen one.
Knowledge Seekers: seen lots.
Edhelgarth: never seen one.
sorry but no point in going on as it is to clear that it is not up to date ,that is why i pointed out good place to start but guilds have posts in this section too. :)
-
i know of and have seen member/s of all in game... except one...
/me points at Aendar
also in my opinion the ones on that list are what i would consider the \'real\' guilds.

You leave out Explorers and Feline\'s lair and say the list is not up to date? As Aendar put it, Guilds that have proved themselves are listed there- I see more blitzers then I do members of the \"Justice Warriors\" or whatever guild that was that had the most members before the wipe...
Many members does not make for a good guild
-
Sorry milady for i seem to have not made my point click on link to Kada`s in Sangwa post.
By saying I\'d seen none/few/lots I was implying that since I\'d never seen any members I was in doubt that these guilds still existed.

Janner was quoting guilds in the list following Sangwa\'s link, and if you do the same you will see that neither Explorers, Feline\'s Lair nor Justice Warriors are on the list.
Is there another Kada El\'s list somewhere??
-
Nope they are both there Pip :). About midway down in the planshift guilds of old section. Not to mention that felines lair is very active and most often I see someone from Explorers online. And the Blitzers and Zelphirien were very active in game before the wipe. But seem to have gotten lost :(. Though I still see Zelphira around.
Another guild/not so much a guild that Janner left off.. is Sentinels of the Ragnarok which changed into the Community of Vaalnor. I would say we have been quite active as well. But you also have to remember none of the guilds on that list are mass recruiting guilds.. so teh chances you would see some of them would be quite low.
-
:D oh yes, my mistake, I thought Guilds of Old meant that they were no longer active.
I expected to see Explorers and Feline\'s Lair in Guilds of the Realm.
I imagine newbies would think the same and therefore skip that part of the list when looking for a guild to join.
-
oh i find this most offensive X( ....
not really, we\'ve not been outwardly active lately, our fault.

It used to, but it\'s hella out of date. Plus, it doesn\'t include secret guilds, secretive guilds, or initiatives.

Haha sorry but how can a guild be secret if it is posted clearly on Kada\'s list?
You prob don\'t see that many members of the guilds of the realm in-game because unlike the newer guilds they don\'t just accept every newb that comes along into the guild.
And the CV is not set up in game, or atleast not that I know of, so you have to know who the members are in order to spot them.
Edit: And if you think Kada\'s list is out of date, you can always look at the new guild list Aendar has set up, which is stickied at the top of the guilds forum.

Right... a lot of guilds were lost during the wipe and never regrouped. Others don\'t exist in-game as actual guilds. And there are secret guilds which are none-the-less well known, or at least known.

Blitzers are still around ;-).
You could always look at Aendar\'s new list (http://www.planeshift3d.com/wbboard/thread.php?threadid=19509&boardid=18&styleid=3&sid=a379531f212e56eaff2d89f3ef606ce7).

The problem is that it\'s merely a catalogue of guilds with descriptions the guild made about themselves. Each guild will try to reflect on itself in the best possible light, regardless of its reputation in the community.
If someone wants guidance, it\'s because they want guidance. Not propoganda.

Well, that list merely shows active guilds. If someone is interested in the guild, he/she will probably investigate it more before coming to a conclusion.

What are you talking about? Going by that logic dont read anyones thread or ask them about their guild because the person will only lie because he/she wants their guild to look better. In fact dont join a guild because they most likely all liars and doing \"bad\" things behind the scenes.
Kadas list is the best thing we got. Most of the guilds are the only guilds in PS that have earned their respect especially the \"Planeshift Guilds of Old\". So yes it is the best place to look.
